Open Studio is designed for families and individuals ages 6 and up to drop in, explore art and have fun expressing themselves at their own pace. A COCA teaching artist will guide participants as they explore collage, sculpture, printmaking or digital design in the Gold Art & Design Studio.
Each Sunday, new themes, project ideas and materials will be available for those interested in more guidance, however, participants will also be encouraged to experiment and be creative as they explore their own art interests.
4 to 5:25 p.m. every Sunday afternoon through December 16 at COCA in University City. Cost is $20 per session on a drop-in basis.
